Because Capitalists place Capital ahead of all else in their moral calculations.
Strassel: Big Business Sells Out Small Business
This is no surprise. Whether you call it "Crony-Capitalism," "Statism," or "Fascism" the convergence of big government and big business places all else at the service of capital accumulation.
Don't presume I'm taking a Marxist line, I'm not. I am entirely in favor of free markets. I merely recognize that when Fortune 500 corporations use their political clout and access to collude with the central government to shape policy favorable to their interests, that is not a free market in operation.
